CONTEST OF THE MONTH!
Mar 10:14-15 ...Suffer the little children to come unto me (Jesus), and
forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you,
Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall
not enter therein.
Hi, Welcome to the
www.cbmmd.org website.
CBM has three clear focuses which describe our vision that God called us
to:
1. God has asked us to effectively minister to children.
2. God has asked to produce high quality, relevant, life-changing teaching
resources.
3. God has asked us to be available to train and equip the Body of Christ
in effectively reaching, winning and nurturing children.

CBM provides numerous opportunities for
Christians to become involved in full-time work in the ministry. CBM
workers are involved in teaching the Word of God, recruiting workers,
training volunteers, managing and developing financial structures, and
representing the ministry to local churches, educational administrators
and school boards. As a result, they are ministering to children,
teenagers, and parents. They also are involved in the spiritual
development of local believers who benefit from the training and service
opportunities offered them through CBM's ministry.
CBM History
In 1935 Mr. Walter Jensen, a graduate of Moody Bible Institute, founded
Children's Bible Mission in response to his burden to reach boys and girls
with the Gospel. His method was to go into the public schools and teach
God's Word, motivating the children to learn and memorize Scripture by
offering as an incentive the opportunity to attend a summer Bible camp.
That first year 47 children earned the privilege and 16 accepted Jesus
Christ as their Savior. The work of CBM Ministries, as it became known
later, quickly spread from Florida to Pennsylvania, reaching thousands of
public school boys and girls.
Who Are We?
We are a non-denominational, non-profit organization whose aim is to
encourage boys and girls, as well as men and women, to read the Bible and
thus to know the Living Lord, the Lord of Life. We do not represent any
particular church or group but rather seek to be in harmony with the Word
of God and the God of the Word.
Why are we on the Internet?
To bring the Good News of God, the Lord Jesus Christ, to people who are
searching for Him, to people who want a relationship with God; a Living
relationship today, and the assurance of forgiven sins and eternal life.
More parents and children are searching the Internet to find answers to
important questions. The number grows everyday, but it is estimated that
approximately 47.5 million people use the Internet in the US alone.
"Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature."
Mark 16:15
What Do I Do to Know this Living God?
In the Bible, God tells us that ...” your iniquities have separated
between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you,
that He will not hear”( Isaiah Chapter 59, verse 2). God declares in the
Book of Romans, chapter 6, and verse 23 that “..the wages of sin (
iniquities) is death (eternal separation from God).” God tells us the good
news at the end of the same verse “...but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord.” If we agree with God that we are sinners,
and that Jesus Christ died in our place, we can have an eternal
relationship with God through Jesus Christ by asking Christ to come into
our heart. In the last book of the Bible, The Revelation, Jesus Christ
says “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any man hear my voice, and
open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with
me”. Jesus Christ is knocking at the door of your heart even as you are
reading this message. Will you open you heart to Him? Will you ask Him to
come into your heart as your substitute sin bearer? The Gospel of John is
the book of the Bible that tells of the life and works of Jesus Christ. It
is called the Gospel of belief. If you would like to know more about God
and Jesus Christ, you can view a copy of the Gospel of John.
